Qualified to Satisfy? Time to update your website so it makes the grade

Thu 10 November 2016 - John Shiel

GOOGLE is Search Engine. It is not the Internet, but it has such an influence on the World Wide Web that it is often confused as being one and the same thing.

In fact, its influence doesn’t stop there.

Take mobile phones for instance. Google has its own criteria for what is and what is not a ‘mobile-friendly’ website (also known as a ‘responsive’ website).

Google puts so much store on this that Google’s search engine results are actually affected by how mobile-friendly a website is.

If your site is very mobile-friendly, it will score higher (and rank higher) than if it were not mobile-friendly.

This makes sense – we browse the internet far more on our phones and tablets than our PCs, so it comes as no surprise that Google should want to display sites that perform well and look better on a mobile phone, favouring them over sites which don’t look so great when a smartphone accesses them.
